The Rs 180-crore Modicare Ltd—a network marketing company—has embarked on a host of marketing initiatives to promote its existing as well as new products this year.

In addition, Modicare has launched “The Modicare Success Centre” in three different areas such as the ‘supermarket’, the ‘lifestyle corner’ and ‘training centre’ to create a platform for distributors to enable them to conduct their business, says Mr Modi.

Adds Mr Modi: “It has been our belief that visual representation and experiencing the products is what helps marketing our brands better. Keeping this in mind, we have developed the concept of Modicare Success Centres.”

As part of the marketing strategy, Mr Modi informs that the company has designed a mini supermarket, with branding in the form of a neon signage and display panels that facilitate easy and quick access. “There are wall racks with different placards to indicate the various products comprising personal care, cosmetics and skincare, home care, laundry care, food grade, plastic containers, auto care, soft toys, audio cassettes and colouring books for children and aqua care among others,” he adds.

Recently, Modicare Ltd changed its corporate logo to give it a more international appeal. As for the rationale behind this move, explains Mr Modi: “The new logo with M in the center signifies the Modicare family and the outer ring is in a sense representation of the macro economic view of Modicare. We would implement exporting our products to SAARC countries in the next two years time-frame.”
